The Rigger
Detective David Parker knows knots the way most cops know circles of evidence. When a murder victim turns up suspended in Japanese bondage, his experience tells him that the rope work is precise, deliberate, and elegant—the kind of suspension he knows all too well. To identify the killer, he must charge into the world of kink—a part of his life he’s tried to keep secret—and both he and his partner, Megan Hendriks, race through Vancouver’s taboo underground while navigating a shadowy international trail leading to Japan and China. Parker turns to Shiro Nakamura, a renowned Japanese rope artist and the man who took him in as a teenaged runaway in Japan. Their shared past is marked by obsession, control, and the murder of Shiro’s former model, a crime that still shadows them both.
Parker and Hendriks settle on two suspects: a local businessman who was the victim’s former boyfriend and a former play partner who likes to push the boundaries of consent and safety. One obvious suspect is left off the list: Shiro. However, Parker refuses to consider his former mentor as a possible suspect, making Hendriks question her partner’s motives. Her doubts grow and she feels compelled to inform her superiors about her concerns. Parker becomes trapped between the man who shaped him and the truth he has spent years avoiding. But as he pulls on each line of evidence, it’s cut off by another corpse, and his own history plunges the investigation into chaos.
Dark, meticulous, and unflinching— THE RIGGER hurls Parker and everyone around him into devastating confrontations and towards a heart-wrenching conclusion.
